Random Scandal Sheet for Sunday 7/5/15

What southern Florida is talking about this week:

Muscovies!

Who knew they were so controversial?

Apparently, they are an invasive species (the Asian Carp of the environs, to put it in the perspective of the *last* invasive species with which I became familiar [or invasive species a la Mexican immigrants, to those of you who are fond of the Trump and his attempts to guarantee that a Democrat is elected in the next presidential contest {the DNC is paying this guy, right?}]) AND potentially worse than all of that, they poop up to 1/3 a pound a day.

In a world where so few people get along, it's likely no surprise that some folks like to feed 'em, some folks like to rescue 'em, some folks like to brag when they run over them with their lawnmower, some folks like to remove them humanely ... and some folks, I suppose, could care less one way or the other.

But consider yourself warned and consider me your Paul Revere, Duck Edition:  The Muscovies are coming!  The Muscovies are coming!

FORGET SCOTUS ... HERE'S THE *REAL* CONTROVERSY:
